We discovered the joy of working for a University...Spring Break!! Clark had to work last Monday and Tuesday, but as soon as he got off work Tuesday evening we took off for sunny Florida! We drove to Pensacola and stopped for about an hour to visit with an old friend (Crystale, it was GREAT to see you...I can't believe it had been FIVE years)!! We had a great time visiting and catching up.

Then we loaded back up and drove 2 more hours to the Marianna exit to spend the night. We slept well and Wednesday morning drove on to Apopka! We got to Apopka around 3:00 pm and enjoyed an afteroon hanging out at Papa's house. Hey Papa...do you need any help finding the dust pan??? Sorry, I know that was random, but I couldn't help...LOL! Anyway, then went out to dinner and ended the evening at Boarders looking at books!

Thursday morning it was off to the hair salon. I got my hair cut off again, only this time it is REALLY short! I LOOOVE it! What do you think?









Thursday night we stayed at my Mom's and enjoyed a steak dinner...Thanks G-Doug! It was YUMMY and once again we just enjoyed the evening spending time with family. Friday we headed to the mall and went Easter Dress shopping for the girls. Friday evening my brother (TJ) had 2 softball games so we went and cheered his team on. It was fun watching the girls and Gavin (T's son) play and have a good time at the ballfield.

Saturday we met up with Papa again and he bought me my belated birthday present. He got me a Diamondback bike with a baby seat to put on the back and a rack to carry it on the back of the car. I can't wait to take a ride with Clark, Misa and Cali on the bike trail here in town!! When we were all done shopping we hung out at Papa's house. The girls went fourwheeling and had a blast playing outside!







Then it was off to dinner with the whole family (my mom and stepdad, my dad, my brother, sister in law, and nephew). We sat out on a deck and ate outside. It was such a relaxing and fun evening.

It is just what we needed Spring Break to be! We did a lot but none of it was rushed and it was all relaxed. We spent great quality time with family and after 4 years in Korea that is a HUGE blessing!

The drive back to MS was uneventful and really quite pleasant. The girls were SOOO good in the car! Here is a little taste of the entertainment they provided!

I know I probably bored you to death with all the details, if you made it this far, thanks for putting up with my ramblings. I hope you enjoyed the pictures. We really did have a fun week!
